This report relates to 2 case(s)

In two of the first appeals to the EAT under
the Equal Pay Act, the Appeal Tribunal has set important guidelines as to how
Industrial Tribunals should interpret the "like work" requirement in
s.1(4) of the Act. In particular, the EAT has ruled that "trivial
differences" in the work done by a woman and that done by a man and
differences in the times at which they perform the work should be disregarded
when determining whether work is like work.
